Currently working at Google as a Software Engineer, Jenae has a proven track record of delivering high-quality software solutions. Jenae has worked with various open-source companies in the past, including Chronos and Open Source, where she was responsible for developing and implementing React Hooks/Context to reduce extraneous code and modularizing applications into distinct services to make editing easier as they scale up. She has also worked with Relational and Non-Relational Databases to test compatibility with applications to ensure seamless communication after deployment. Jenae is proficient in containerizing applications with Docker to have a scalable application with a consistent computing environment across various platforms. She has also incorporated Nginx Docker Container to route RESTful HTTP requests to containerized microservices with microservers to load balance requests. Jenae has experience working with Node.js Async Hooks API in conjunction with an npm package, hpropagate, to persist metadata from the header of an inbound request to the header of an outbound request with a global tracer object and to keep track of the microservices that were activated along the request’s path. She has also updated Electron codebase by designing a render process that connected to a main process through ipcMain/Render modules allowing data to be sent asynchronously for files to update concurrently and for a feature to be added into the application. Jenae is proficient in Agile/Scrum environment to manage features, tasks, sprints, and repository issues within a professional manner. She has also worked with SyntacticSugars | E-Commerce Hub for Bakers, where she incorporated Styled Components into the application to easily style an element while providing both a semantic and unique class name as tags, to simply find the style description within the same file, and to still have the compatibility to create media queries and make the application responsive. Jenae holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University, a Master's degree in Civil Engineering from Polytechnic University, and has completed her high school from Brooklyn Technical High School.
